Post asp HTML form to Excel worksheet

I have a form with 3 fields.
I need some asp code to post that HTML form data to an excel worksheet thats in the same folder as the web form.
Excel location; strCon=strCon & server.MapPath("ExcelDb.xls")

If I can use AJAX to post those form fields to Excel as hidden fields, that'll work for me also.

You can fairly easily create an excel spreadsheet for display or download using tabular data in ASP Classic however in order to work with real MS Excel spreadsheets appending, etc., you'll have to go with a ASP.NET solution.

I did something similar with an ASP site a few years ago and used a 3rd party component (CarlosAg.ExcelXmlWriter) to do the heavy lifting. The regular ASP site ran as usual but I added the Excel section using ASP.NET.
